Hello,

I am creating a script to function like Ustream.tv or Justin.tv and it is currently configured at www.Toxin.tv. What I need to do is retrieve the status of a stream (amount of users and whether or not it's live) more importantly, though, whether or not it's live in JavaScript or PHP - if this is at all possible.

Please help me, If I can't figure it out I'll just pay someone to do it 😛 but I'd really like to try to do it myself first. Thanks so much in advance.

    You can't do it at the application instance level (the FMS core can't listen for HTTP requests), but you can get a list of live streams from the admin service via http request.

    See the docs for the HTTP api of the admin service, specifically the getLiveStreams method.
